Hadith 587
۞
Hadith.5557 - Al-Sakuni narrated through his chain of transmission that the
Commander of the Faithful (as), peace be upon him, said regarding a man who, on his deathbed, confessed;
"So-and-so and so-and-so each have a claim of one thousand dirhams against me," and then he died in that state.
Imam (as) said: "Whoever among them provides evidence has the right to the money. But if neither of them provides evidence, the money is to be divided equally between them."
5557 - وَ رَوَى اَلسَّكُونِيُّ بِإِسْنَادِهِ قَالَ
قَالَ أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : فِي رَجُلٍ أَقَرَّ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ فَقَالَ لِفُلاَنٍ وَ فُلاَنٍ لِأَحَدِهِمَا عِنْدِي أَلْفُ دِرْهَمٍ ثُمَّ مَاتَ عَلَى تِلْكَ اَلْحَالِ فَقَالَ "أَيُّهُمَا أَقَامَ اَلْبَيِّنَةَ فَلَهُ اَلْمَالُ فَإِنْ لَمْ يُقِمْ أَحَدٌ مِنْهُمَا اَلْبَيِّنَةَ فَالْمَالُ بَيْنَهُمَا نِصْفَانِ".
